Silver BraceletAnne Rowson - R A Designs

Anne has called MCDC home for nearly 3 decades. The silver bangle represents 3 memories that she cherishes about the Centre. The marks represent the continuous noise of making that resonates in the building. The 3 moving rings on the piece stand for each decade that Anne has been based here. The Turquoise stone is hoped to bring the maker and purchaser luck for the future.
